New in the Editor: Split Subtitles

Over the past year, many of our users have requested the ability to split a long subtitle in two. This is especially important when translating, since one language may use many more characters to express the same phrase as in another language.Now Amara editor users can split a subtitle in two with a keyboard shortcut. Just place the cursor at the spot in the subtitle where you want to split the text, and click ctrl+enter. Thank you to the users who responded to our Facebook post and shared keyboard shortcut ideas with us for this feature!
